I Thought You Hate Her
After a few seconds, Christopher spoke. “Mr. Sutton, I think you read too much into it. The Faulkner
family is one of the prominent four families of Xedells, and they have strict rules and regulations. Even
if Mr. Faulkner is the person in charge of his family’s business now, he couldn’t possibly escape from
the fate of being in an arranged marriage. I don’t think he will marry Genevieve.”
Cooper would have ignored Christopher’s remarks if this conversation had occurred in the past.
However, today, he was offended by Christopher’s words. Cooper’s expression darkened. “The
Rachford family used to enjoy a prestigious status in Jadeborough. It isn’t entirely impossible for Ms.
Rachford to marry into the Faulkner family.”
“You’ve said so yourself. Her family was prestigious and influential in the past.” Christopher looked at
Cooper cautiously. “Mr. Sutton, I thought you hate Ms. Rachford?”
Christopher found Cooper’s frustration at him mentioning and talking bad about Genevieve strange.
Cooper froze. He, too, felt that he reacted in an unusual manner.
Desperate for some fresh air, Cooper removed his tie. “Have you fetched Jacob yet?”
Jacob was the sole survivor of the fire from many years ago. He was the one who had told Cooper the
truth. After the revelation, Cooper gave Jacob a sum of money that was enough for him to live out the
rest of his life in his hometown.
Recently, Cooper had requested Christopher to seek Jacob out so they could have a meal together. He
wanted to know more about the fire all these years ago.
Christopher’s face darkened. He did not respond to Cooper’s question.
When Cooper noticed the hesitant look on his assistant’s face, his heart sank as though he realized
something terrible had happened. “Did something happen to Jacob?”
“Yes…” Christopher lowered his head before reporting, “Shawn was supposed to pick up Jacob. He
said he found him dead when he arrived at Jacob’s place. The autopsy report indicated that he passed
away two hours before Shawn found him. The reason for his death was a heart attack.”
“How about the housekeeper?”
“The housekeeper caring for Jacob just so happened to be out to get his medicine from the hospital.”
Instantly, Cooper’s face took on a ghastly expression.
Christopher glanced at him before continuing, “Jacob had multiple organ failures after escaping the fire.
He hasn’t been feeling well for the past few years, so I think his days were already numbered.”
“Yea. It’s normal for him to die. But, why now?” Cooper frowned. That was the thing that was bothering
him as he questioned himself and Christopher.
Nothing happened to Jacob yesterday. Why did he die the moment I sent someone over to fetch him
for a meal?
Christopher did not have the same opinion as Cooper, though. He spoke. “Heart attack is a relatively
common sickness that even little kids get diagnosed with. You know Jacob wasn’t in good health.”
Cooper stayed silent as his expression turned frostier. Christopher did not dare to say anything else.
After a while, Cooper instructed calmly, “Get someone to manage Jacob’s funeral proceedings. Other
than that, try to bribe the neighbors. Ask them whether Jacob had said anything to them or whether
anyone had looked for him after he moved in.”
Christopher immediately understood where Cooper was going with his instructions. He was stunned as
he asked, “Do you think there is something fishy… about Jacob’s death?”
“His life ended at the wrong time,” Cooper answered with a grim expression.
Cooper had stayed hidden and bide his time in the Rachford family for twenty years because he
wanted to exact revenge. After years of experience in the business field, his patience and observation
skills were tip-top. He did not believe in such coincidences.
Someone must’ve found out that I was investigating the past. That’s why they decided to silence him
forever.
As those thoughts crossed his mind, Cooper narrowed his eyes before adding, “Be careful.”
“All right.” Christopher quickly left the office.
Feeling bothered and frustrated by the latest development, Cooper took a pack of cigarettes from his
drawer and lit one up.
Soon, the white smoke blurred his glasses.
Silence filled the room as he smoked. Cooper’s train of thoughts landed on that day when he saw
Armand outside City Hall with an obedient-looking Genevieve beside him. His heart sank when he
remembered Genevieve had her arms wrapped around Armand.
